He helped heal Jaime Lannister's arm after his hand was lopped off and is also responsible for one of Cersei's most terrifying pawns, the Mountain, coincidentally the man who left him for dead back in season three.

Bothacts led to his rise as her hand.

Bronn (maybe…probably…who knows?)

Everyone's favourite former sellsword who was drinking at an inn on the Crossroads when fate came through the door in season one.

As crafty as he is deadly, he rose to become Ser Bronn of the Blackwater and has now served every Lannister sibling in some capacity.

He's got a wagonful of gold and Riverrun on the table from Cersei, and the seat of Highgarden as a counter-offer from Tyrion.

Neither is an offer to sneeze at (though I'd probably choose Highgarden for those endless peach orchards).

Bronn probably won't pick a side until it's obvious who has won, which to be fair, seems like a very good idea.

Lannister bannermen

Granted, after last season's run in with the Dothraki and a couple of dragons, the force commanded by House Lannister has seen better days.

We'll include King's Landing's City Watch (known as the gold cloaks) under this as well because let's be honest, they're going to be more loyal to Cersei than to the Westerosi common folk.

The Iron Bank

Not a fighting force, to be sure, but without their support Cersei wouldn't have been able to afford the Golden Company.

The masters of coin propped up the Iron Throne during King Robert Baratheon's rule (he did have a fondness for tournaments after all).

It's fair to say this is a soft support though.

The Iron Bank once funded Stannis Baratheon, so don't expect them to hang around if it looks like an investment is going bad.

Jaime Lannister

The Kingslayer is a massive unknown in this fight, and not just because his best days with a sword are long behind him.

On the surface, he certainly looks to be riding south to join Cersei in King's Landing. But there's an unmistakable air of tragedy hanging about the younger Lannister twin.

After fighting side by side with them at the Battle of Winterfell, he's not likely to cause any problems for Daenerys' troops marching to King's Landing.

And given the on-again, off-again nature of their relationship, plus his previous form when standing next to a tyrant who doesn't know their time is up, who knows what might happen.

Once again, we're about to find out what things Jaime will do for love.

Next up, in the from-across-the-blue corner, the fresh face from a dynasty that's seen better days, it's *deep breath* Daenerys Stormborn of the House Targaryen, the First of Her Name, Queen of the Andals, the Rhoynar and the First Men, Lady of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm, Lady of Dragonstone, Queen of Meereen, Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, the Unburnt, Breaker of Chains and Mother of Dragons.

On paper, was once the clear favourite.

But a detour north to sort out the undead has left the Dragon Queen in less-than-optimal shape for this bout.

That doesn't mean she's not packing a big punch.

The Dothraki

Legendary horsemen who have supported their Khaleesi through thick and thin.

Dany's original Khalasar followed Drogo, but found their new queen when she walked out of the flames with Dragons on her shoulders.
